Dumb Nuck Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 37 minutes ago, Timbermen said: Canucks have some a lot of size in the lineup. i remember when they had Sandlak and Momesso on the third line and Odjick and Hunter or Antoski on the 4th line. Kind of reminds me of those days with Ferland, Virtanen, MacEwen, Beagle, two heavy lines to play against. Goes a long way in the playoffs, wearing down the other teams D. Size doesn’t matter if you don’t play tough and unfortunately playing tough is not our style, we will be the team worn down, we don’t have the edginess nor the experience. Even if we get knocked out in the preliminary round it’ll be some growth and any round thereafter will be a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ferland can play the way he did against us with the Flames, he'll add alot of toughness. We have Beagle, Rousell, Benn, Fantenberg, Virtanen, MacEwen, Motte, Miller, Edler and Horvat. They can all play physical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Roussel was aware what he said, but you certainly gave the Wild motivation now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When healthy and playing well, their style is play agressively and be physical on the forecheck. That's their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shall see and i hope you’re right but their track record of sticking up for each other is rather poor and they have no experience how intense a playoff series can get.

10pavelbure96 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I have a feeling Rous and Ferly are going to be huge for us. Similar to LaPierre and Torres in 2011 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s my point, we don’t do that, we don’t fight back so they take even more liberties and this will all be ramped up in the playoffs. I’d kill for a cup but being objective, we’re a mediocre team will no playoff experience and a turn the other cheek attitude instilled by our coach, doesn’t look to promising.
